Peters Brook is a small stream, also called a tributary, located in New Jersey, United States. It flows through parts of Mercer and Hunterdon counties. This brook eventually joins a larger stream known as Stony Brook.
The Journey of Peters Brook
Peters Brook begins its journey in New Jersey. Its starting point is near the intersection of Rock Road East and CR-601 (Mt Airy-Harbourton Road). From there, the brook flows towards the northeast.
As it travels, Peters Brook crosses a few roads. These include Rock Road East and CR-579, which is also known as Linvale-Harbourton Road.
The brook then flows past the Pine Creek Golf Course. After this, it crosses Route 31. Finally, Peters Brook empties its water into the Stony Brook. This is where its journey ends.
